Thanks guys, yeah its the Thermostat and Thermometer probes. i just misted it manually before i put him in

Thanks for the help and kind words Aliza and Kelly. Im still pretty gutted about the little guy, i just tried to let nature take its course but it soon became apparent that it was too late, im not sure anything could have been done to save him. Its just one of thoses things i guess :( On a...

Well I decided to open the egg after it still not coming out many hours after it had pipped. Opened the egg to find a fully formed little leo :( i had a feeling it wouldn't be alive. What did surprise me was the head of the hatchling was at the oposite end of the egg which was pipped...

Thanks, im relieved for the first one! :D the 2nd one still isn't out yet, starting to worry now. would you suggest i open it, if it pipped it would it not mean its ready anyway, although i fear the worst :(

Well this was this females 2nd clutch, her first was infertile so i didnt have high hopes of these hatching but i incubated them anyway. Well i checked on them today and to my surprise, 1 was out and running about the tub! well my excitement quickly turned to worry as there was some large...

Thanks for the quick responses guys! Im just going to wait it out and be patient :D hopefully i can give you guys a nice little update!

Soz guys but ive just noticed that 1 of my eggs appeared to be sweating when i checked on it today, its only on day 49 incubated at 82F so surely it cant be ready to hatch? i thought id be looking at 55 days min? This is my very first clutch of eggs so im very wary. The other egg went bad...

Thanks guys, i was just curious if it could happen. Ill keep an eye on her anyway :)

Well i paired one of my females up on the 1st of April, she didn't lay her 1st clutch until the 6th May, now 1 month on she hasn't laid another clutch and she doesn't even look like shes developing any more eggs. This is her first time breeding, is it possible to have only 1 clutch? Thanks

Thankyou :D how long can i expect them to take at 81F?

Well the girl i was anxious about laying finally laid last night! Old Thread here http://geckoforums.net/showthread.php?t=40572 I just saw her lazing about and she looked pretty small looking so i weighed her..... 71grams! only weighed her 2 days ago at 81 so i knew she must have layed...

Thanks for the replies :main_thumbsup: Im just glad that shes not overdue or anything :) oh and the incubators been running for about 3 weeks :main_laugh:

Well I paired my leos up on the 1st of April and 34 days later she still hasn't laid. To me she looks clearly gravid and shes been destroying her laybox for the past week. This is my first time breeding so im abit worried on how long she is taking, should i be concerned? Shes also lost abit of...

Nah, i weigh the container then tare it back to 0g then add my mix. Do you think i shoud just judge it by myself cause i reckon shes going to lay tonight, this has really got me puzzled :main_huh: im i right in saying that the perlite should be moist enough that it clumps together but...

Yeah im using a hand sprayer/mister to add the water. My perlite came to 125g so i added 100g of water. See if you tipped your container over, would the water pour out? or should the perlite have absorbed the water? Thanks
